Still enjoying shooting film - especially on a bright, sunny day. These with an F6, and the 55 1.2 sc. Scanned on a Nikon V ED. Portra 400 half box speed.

Pretty much like photography for me. I now have TAS syndrome. At least, tools are cheaper at the moment...until I develop the equivalent of "ED" stage, then they can get expensive.

Anyone have a 28-85mm f/3.5-4.5 ais?
I bought it mainly to use reversed as a guy on the macro forum is using it reversed as it reproduces between 1:4 and 3:1 which, if IQ is up to scratch is a very useful range of magnification. ...

Andy, I bought this zoom last year anticipating my trip to Italy, but in the end I favoured the 25-50/4 and the 75-150E.
I have not used it reversed (good idea! Need to experiment!), but anyway I made some comparison shots at MFD with & without close up filters. Already posted here in January, anyway I repost just for you; sorry for boring others here.
All shots with a D610 at ISO 1600 + tripod, "macro" (M) setting at the lens in the minimum focusing distance (MFD) at different zoom positions.
WD = working distance subject to lens front.
The subject is the venerable Nikkor 16mm f/3.5 F.
I think you're missing the point Tront... this thread is for NIKON manual focus lenses, not Zeiss or any other manufacturer. I know it can be confusing, but this is what we've been doing for almost seven years. If you want to post your Zeiss photos there are a number of places to do so. Thanks.
